Why does my Ford Mustang idle at 800 rpm?

Why does my Ford Mustang idle at 800 rpm?

The car had underdrives on the crank and waterpump before I bought it and the volt gauge does not go up until about 1000 rpm. Even with this the car would idle before at 800 rpm. When I added the parts in the sig, the engine would not idle at all. The car died every time it came to a stop.

What happens to your car when you idle?

A rough idle will result in intense vibrations forming whenever your vehicle is stopped with the engine running. Since less air will be going into the engine during its idle state, the car will react by shaking profusely.

What happens if you have a bad idle control valve?

Since the idle air control valve is supposed to manage the idle speed of the engine, a bad valve will certainly throw that out of whack. It will cause the idle speed to randomly fluctuate to different speeds rather than stay at one constant speed. The idle speed may be too high at one moment and then too low at other moments.

What is an example of a high idle?

Example: You pull up in the driveway or to a stop light with the clutch in and the car idles it self up to 2K or 3K rpms and then stays there, then finaly drops down when it wants to. Or, your driving down the road, push the clutch in, and the car stays at whatever rpm you were at when you went to make the shift for more than a sec or two.

What should the TPS be at idle on a jeep?

A faulty IAC would give a constant idle (high or low) and a fault code for the IAC. Erratic is normally the TPS. If you have a scanner which shows live data, you can see the TPS % going up and down a bit. Its normally around 12 % at idle.

What does erratic idle mean on a jeep?

Erratic idle like you have is the TPS. A faulty IAC would give a constant idle (high or low) and a fault code for the IAC. Erratic is normally the TPS.

What’s the engine rpm on a new Jeep?

On startup, the RPM will climb up to 2,000 and then idle back down to around 6oo. It doesn’t matter if the engine is hot or cold. Engine is the 4.7 in a ’99 Could this be a function of the throttle position sensor and if not, what could cause this? Thanks This could have to do with the TPS, but also with the idle air control (IAC) stepper motor.

Why does my Jeep make a pulsing sound when I idle?

The car idles and drives perfectly at slower speeds but on the highway you can really feel the pulses and hear the exact making sounds. The only way to get the pulsing to stop is to give the jeep more gas. It sounds to me like its a missfire somewhere along the engine due to the fact that the exhaust is making sounds from the pulsing.
